Well, they're really nice images.

I'm still waiting to see images from the Digilux 3, or the Panasonic 
equivalent with the new DC Vario lens.

I went into a big box store that had the Panasonic version; after 
discussion with the salesman about the Olympus E-500 lenses, I 
successfully mounted the Olympus lens on the Panny without an adaptor.

Interesting possibilities.  The Panasonic was listed at just over US $ 
1,850.00.  They only had one and it was evidently in stock by mistake; 
over their usual merchandise price point.
